IF YOU ARE HAVING TROUBLE WITH PAY PAL AND COOKIES, PLEASE SEND ME AN EMAIL TO jsmoskal at gmail.com and I will send you an invoice for the calendar. I am very sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you to everyone who has ordered a calendar! The response has been fantastic and more than I hoped for. The last three photos have been added to the 2016 Calendar Preview album online here, if you'd like to be spoiled!

Pre-Orders for the spiral-bound 11x17" (8.5x11" closed) wall calendar will close early tomorrow morning (10/24, US East Coast). You can order a calendar using the "buy now" button in the side bar.

I'll have them printed when the pre-orders are complete and ship them as soon as they arrive. I expect you'll receive your calendar by mid-November. By placing an order through my website, we avoid many fees, which means I can offer the calendars at a lower price.

Please let me know if you have any questions, or if you'd like to order more than one calendar. I can set up a special invoice for you and combine shipping charges.

Pre-Orders are now available for a 2016 Farm Calendar with photos of chickens, sheep, goats and landscapes from my farm!

The 12-month spiral bound wall calendar measures 8x11 inches closed and 11x17 opened and is printed on high-quality card stock.

The pictures shown are samples of what might appear in the calendar...I haven't put it all together yet and suggestions are welcome in the comments below. Many of the months will feature a full-sized photo that fills the entire page, but some months will include a photo collage. Some, but not all, of the photos have been posted on either Instagram or Facebook throughout the year.

Pre-Orders will be open through Friday, October 23, and calendars will be delivered to you by mid-November. The special Pre-Order price is $19. After October 23 additional calendars may be available at a higher price. Shipping through USPS is $5 in the United States. International orders will be billed for the additional cost at the time of shipping (typically $3-4 extra for Canada, and $6-7 extra for other countries.)
